Product Description

$ 0.00

Elizabeth Gould and Paul Fitzgerald, a husband and wife team, began working together in 1979, co-producing a documentary, The Arms Race and the Economy: A Delicate Balance, for Paul's television show, "Watchworks." Soon they found themselves in the midst of a swirling controversy that was to boil over a few months later with the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. As the first American journalists to delve deeply inside the story, they not only got a view of an unseen Afghan life, but a revelatory look at how the U.S. defined itself against the rest of the world under the veil of superpower confrontation.
